Was so impressed. The pictured really don't do this place justice. It was huge and we had a fabulous time. Thanks again, oxide. He was so great with keeping in touch

Large home,great host

I love the place. It is a nice, big and clean with a lot of free space. Huge backyard with a basketball hoop! Oxie communicated well with us even though we never got to see him or anyone at the house. It was an over all good place to stay for the night

Amazingly friendly host; felt like I was staying with family. Excellent cook, he kept me fed well. Quiet, natural setting property and huge, open style house. His chicken fettuccini was the best I've eaten! Feed me well and you have a friend for life! I would most definitely recommend and stay anytime I come through this area. And he made me the best smoothie and fresh ground Hawaiian coffee. I almost didn't want to leave.

Just as advertised. Book this place today.

Oxie was a wonderful host! He just had a small bug problem that he was working on with the exterminator. Fix that problem then his place would be ideal.

Oxie was a great host! Very communicative and concerned about our comfort during our stay. Being able to enjoy the natural beauty of the area in a quiet, low-key location was also a plus. We would go back!

Oxie was a really nice host, we appreciate our stay, it's a very nice house with a beautiful outside. I recommend this place

Dominique's place could very well be my favorite airbnb stay ever. The warmest welcome, peace and quiet, the sweetly rustic room and friendliest hosts. I loved my stay there. And oh yeh,an amazing value.

Dominique was the most welcoming host ever!! She was very helpful and her art was beautiful

A great place to get away from it all. Very quiet and the hosts were awesome. Quiet, economical, convenient. Close to everything but feels like you're in the country. We will be back!!

Was a very secluded relaxing place to stay. I Enjoyed my own porch which was a good spot to get my work done. There is a great spring down the road I enjoyed swimming at. Dominique is very caring, and makes sure that you have everything you need. Very well decorative and the place has a lot of character. I recommend this air bnb for sure!

Dominique was an excellent host. The cottage is cozy and welcoming.

This was a great location. Secluded by the tall trees and landscaping yet easily accessible to the major highways and the local eateries. Scenery was delightful and we loved sitting out on the patio in the early morning and late evening. Plenty of privacy. It had everything you need fridge, microwave, and plenty of hot water. I do recommend this place.

Small, quiet place, conveniently located on the south side of DeLand. Probably most comfortable for one person. Dominique was helpful, but not intrusive. She respects your privacy.

I don't think there is much more to say after my other reviews. I stayed at Dominique's cottage three times while looking for and finally finding a house. Every stay was a pleasure. Dominique's hospitality combined with her lovely cottage made coming back an easy choice.

Deneise was very nice and helpful, lake was beautiful. Accommodations were very adequate but not luxurious.

Another great stay at this wonderful location with great hosts.

I continue to find this location and apartment to be just right for me when I visit DeLand.

This was one of the best finds. Clean cute, great location and the hosts were very accommodating!

This secleded private residence is just what your looking for when it comes time for some R&R. I would highly reccomend it to anyone staying in the area!

This was an enjoyable little place for my stay in Deland. It is on a quiet lake and I enjoyed paddling around. The kitchen is just right for making meals. Was a comfy and quiet place.

My second stay. Joe was responsive to any communication and added amenities since my first stay. It was good to have a house when I needed one. Thanks Joe.

The host was very accommodating to my situation. Great location, clean and very responsive yet not intrusive. Highly recommend for a young family or older adults.

This is definitely a just-the-basics place. We needed it for a place to sleep, shower and do laundry while visiting friends. Previous reviews said the property is clean. I would disagree. When we arrived, the floors were probably the cleanest part of the home. There were dust bunnies and spider webs on much of the furniture. The kitchen table was very dirty. Window sills were very dirty. The kitchen sink looks dirty, but I think it's just an old stained sink. The bathroom had used products (from previous guest?) on the side of the tub. Bathroom sink was dirty. I used Lysol wipes on every surface before we unpacked. One of the bedrooms had the mattress on the floor. The headboard from the pictures on Airbnb was in the "dining" room. The dining table top was leaned up against the wall in the "sunroom." The sunroom floor looked like it hadn't been vacuumed in quite some time. The door to the washer (no dryer) wouldn't shut and there were several sharp tools laying around, so I wouldn't recommend this for families with small children. The worst part was the water smelled like rotten eggs. Joe says it is good well water, but I could barely bring myself to shower or brush my teeth, and wasn't going to do my laundry in the smelly water. Thankfully our friends let us shower and do laundry at their place. I let Joe know a solution for this, so hopefully he will take care of the smell. The screen on the front screen door was ripped, so you couldn't leave the door open, or you'd risk letting in bugs. The wi-fi is very weak unless you're right by the source. We did get several channels to work on the tv, even though Joe told me it didn't work. The house is on a very busy 4-lane road that has traffic 24 hours a day. You can hear the traffic through the closed windows all night. If you're just needing a place to sleep, and nothing else, this house would work.

Would like to recommend this bnb for its value though I must keep this note brief due to my present situation. Would like to add more but would advise using good judgement when registering and ascertaining its aptness to your personal requirements.

Joe was awesome. I had to extend my stay 3 times. The only issue was when the AC went on vacation. Joe had some one their to fix it promptly. Will definitely stay with Joe again if need to.

Location is nice, quite, but on a busy day you won't be able to sleep since it's on the highway, but surly no body would disturbs u, very close to Deland Main Street, and just in front of the sheriffs office. As the photos show it's almost in the woods, so lizards get on the front porch, with all other fluids and insects, it was not a problem to us, as they always run when the door is opened. The beds are very old and the mattress logs keep falling while asleep, aside of the photos, the living area is not as the photo, there is no large table to eat on, it's just a small one in the kitchen, the heating system is for half the house the other half specially the laundry room window is opened and cannot be closed so the cold is in anyway, kitchen and bathroom is full of insects, the water have that funny smell of sulfate! Front porch lighting sensors are not working, to me and my wife it was just for spending the night, but somebody else might be bothered! And for the name it's not that sunny because of the surrounding trees, I have stayed in trailers better than this, I expected a house/home though!

The host was very responsive as well as easy to work with. They were very accommodating to my situation. Although internet and TV aren't currently available, the host is considering installing. I would recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a just-the-basics place.

My family has had the wonderful pleasure of staying @ Joes. the house was very clean when we arrived. Joe got in contact with me frequently to make sure all was well. I have extended my stay here twice. the house is located 30 minutes away from Daytona, 45 minutes from Orlando, and 45 minutes to Tavares. I would recommend Joe's house to anyone who is looking for a nice place to stay. I really can't say enough about Joe, GREAT HOST.

Your home away from home is what this truly is! Joyce and Fred are incredible hosts. I live (literally) in hotels for work and obviously find some nice ones along with the unsavory. Going on AirBnB wasn't my first thought, but hotels in the area were insanely priced due to the NASCAR race in Daytona. When I noticed this was a guest house, I thought, "perfect" and it turns out, it really is! Even the nicer hotels I've stayed at do not compare to this. You really do feel at home in every way. The guesthouse is fairly large, about 20x18 or so for the main living area, then it also has an attached kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen has a full sized fridge, stove, oven, utensils and dishes. What more can you ask for? Joyce was nice enough to have some goodies in the fridge as well and a few treats in a basket on the counter. She also made sure to put together a thoughtful binder detailing the area, places to shop, eat and other info to give a nice introduction to the city of DeLand. Very welcoming! They even allowed me use of their washer and dryer, which is in the garage connected to the guest house. The room itself is very very clean. It looks new all the way through. There's a comfy couch along with a bed that is pretty amazing. They also have some included furniture such as a table and chair to eat at and a dresser to store your clothes. The room includes A/C and heat (for the 2 days that Florida gets chilly!). I came in with a Ford F250 truck and 15 foot trailer and we had no problem finding a space on the property for this. Everyone including their kids are extremely accommodating and always ready to help. Wonderful family! If you're like me and enjoy the home feeling while away from home, I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend just grabbing this and not bothering to look around.

Excellent accommodations! Loved everything about it. We will definitely book again.

Wow - what a great experience I had staying in Joyce and Fred's guest house! It was super clean, comfortable and they were the perfect hosts. I'm definitely looking forward to my next DeLand vacation.

They are great, even though i had to cancel last minute due to an unforeseen emergency they were very understanding and helpful. As we planned they took care of every detail.

Fantastic hosts! I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The location was perfect for us visiting Stetson University, only an 8 minute drive. The guesthouse was beautiful and comfortable. Joyce even went the extra mile getting the pullout ready for my girls so that when we arrived one was able to go right into bed. Thanks for an amazing stay!

This was our first experience with Airbnb so we were obviously a little nervous about how it would go. From the moment we arrived at Fred and Joyce's place we felt welcome. Joyce's son was nice enough to help my husband unload our motorcycles from our trailer which was a nice surprise. The house was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Joyce and Fred checked on us occasionally without being intrusive. They're recommendations on places to go and see, resteraunts were spot on!! The location of their property was really perfect for us....allowing us a place to come back to when we needed to decompress from the craziness of the Bike Week events going on in Daytona. And with right at a 30 min drive the location was perfect. They even set up a bonfire and left us out a cooler with beverages to enjoy. They really know how to make guests feel at home. And Deland is a really cute area with a small town vibe. We feel we certainly found new friends in Deland with Joyce and Fred. In fact there were times when we would rather of went back to their place to hang out with them instead of riding!!! We highly recommend their place and plan to return in the near future.

Jocye and Fred's Garage is really beautiful. It's much better than the pictures show. It's wonderfully located at a lake. The garage was very clean and Joyce offered some things for breakfast. We used the washing machine, really helpful on a long journey. We would highly recommend this guesthouse. We will come back once again.

Great alternative to a hotel room. This cute little cottage was quiet and peaceful in a beautiful setting. The cottage has been totally remodeled and was very comfortable. I will definitely be back. Great hosts with good communication and attentive to details. Thanks for a restful stay.

Pleasant welcoming hosts, great house, 100% American lifestyle. I recommend..

Words can't express how great a time we had staying with Nick and Anna at there beautiful house. Spacious, quiet, great private community in a quiet town with nice shops and restaurants. Anna was nice enough to cook for us a few times and everything was delicious to say the least. Full amazing bar, pool table, outside fireplace, plenty of roomy bedrooms, list just goes on and on. When you stay with Nick and Anna, you won't leave disappointed. Looking forward to stays in the future

I could live in this camper trailer. It has everything you need if you like styrofoam & plastic utensils, so I brought my own. I traveled solo and suggest guests be very resourceful.

So our stay was awesome we had allot of fun! It was small but comfy and exactly what we expected from the ad :) the trailer was very clean and welcoming and was fully stocked with everything we could have needed "except plates" lol you where very welcoming and very nice once we did get to chat. Over all we had a great time and the camper was perfect for our short stay and I would definitely recommend it to friends and also wouldn't mind using it for future trips if available :) I hope my feed back helps! And thank you again so much for being able to accommodate us last minute!

Maggie was wonderful in accommodating our time frames and having the trailor all set up and ready at Blue Springs State park. We arrived late to our campsite and it was raining. We were welcomed by a homey warm camper with lights on the canopy and a bottle of wine ready to be opened. There were 3 adults so she also shared a tent and extra bedding which we ended up not using because of the rain and we squeezed in the camper. It was tight but doable. It had everything we needed and was well stocked. The refrigerator and air conditioner added glamour to a traditional camping experience! We so enjoyed our time at Blue Springs in the morning hours before the park was open to the public canoeing with the manatees and walking the trails. Over all I give this experience 5 stars and I'm thankful for an alternate to a cheap hotel in town. Maggie wad a great communicator and really went above and beyond to make this adventure perfect for us!

Found the Little White Rooster after I realized I had waited too long to book hotel for my daughter's Stetson graduation! Usually for campers ..... Maggie loved this idea, brought the Rooster to us and it was delightful ;) we have a big family and didn't want to crash on the sofas with the college kids....tiny, charming and comfy. Look forward to the next time I need "an extra room" in DeLand.

What a unique experience. I love the concept! It took all the hassle out of trailering. Maggie was a wonderful host.

This was a great first camping trip for us! The adorable little camper was stocked with everything we could have ever possibly needed and more. Maggie was great with the delivery, set-up and pick-up. We enjoyed our time camping and are grateful we had this little camper for our trip!

Phenomenal! Great experience. We were all camping in Ocala National park for my sister in laws wedding and Maggie delivered the camper to our campsite. I'm not a camper and neither are my inlaws which were the ones that stayed in the camper, but it was a great experience, she really does bring everything, she left fishing rods and extra seats. Cozy and clean, I'll definitely "glamp" like that. We look forward to renting for us next time.

This place was great! We were a group of 6 and it was plenty roomy. The deck was awesome, the property was great. We were able to do everything we wanted to. We brought ATVS and enjoyed the trails nearby very much! Oxie was super nice and super friendly and accommodating. We are looking forward to seeing him again!

Oxie was a wonderful host! Beautiful house and everything that we needed was provided. Close to downtown but far enough away for a nice getaway!

Oxie was a good host, it was a nice place if you have a big group of people although it's in a secluded area you can still get an Uber to pick you up. Would recommend again.

Excellent place, quite neighborhood. Very clean, relax place and good outdoor area. Mr. Oxie is very nice person and excellent hosted. I recommended this place.

We had an amazing time and experience. The entire process was painless and effortless. As a host, Oxie were absolutely magnificent! This Gorgeous and Peaceful Paradise in the Woods was the perfect place for our daughter's birthday celebration (Quinceañero). We had about 35 people over and still had plenty of space for more. We were able to have 3 separate gaming areas (interactive, board, & video games) and still have room to dance, eat or just sit around to chat. The entire family loved the place and we are already planning our next party and stay. We will be coming back, no doubts about It!

This was a great place for our large party. The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of linens and necessities. Even though we had some concerns about cleanliness, Oxie took care of it immediately and made sure our concerns were heard and addressed. A very comfortable stay for any large group.

Súper buena atención. Con todas las comodidades Nos sentimos como en casa Muy recomendable !!!

Great place!

You will not find a more cozy place or better hosts than Chris and Jamie!

Our son is on the Stetson University football team so we were specifically looking for a place to stay that was close to the school. The Garden Street Retreat is about 15 minutes from campus which made it easy for us to travel back and forth to see our son. Chris and Jaime were wonderful hosts. The room was lovely and the space inside their house is inviting and welcoming. We especially loved spending a little time on their balcony after a long day of watching football. Staying at their home was definitely a delight and we hope to have the chance to come back again someday.

Chris and Jamie greeted me upon arrival with a warm welcome into their lovely home. They are located in a very quiet and safe neighborhood. Accommodations were clean and most comfortable. The listing is spot on. When our schedules allowed, we had enjoyable conversations in the evenings after dinner. I highly recommend Chris and Jamie. Great Hosts! Thanks for a very nice stay!

Chris and Jamie were so kind and made my friends and I feel so welcome in their home. Their house is very beautiful and comfortable to stay in. Would definitely stay again!!

We were greeted at the door by Chris, and immediately felt welcome. Our friends who were staying at an AIRBNB for the first time were impressed. We were given a tour of the house,and shown to our rooms, Chris made us feel at home,and explained everything perfectly. Recommendations were given for dinner, and even though we chose to eat dinner elsewhere, the recommendation for Shady Oak, is where we ended up having breakfast the next morning! All in all, a quick, but relaxing stay, sitting on the gorgeous porch in the evening is highly recommended!

Cris was diligent in his attention to our every need. We chose to stay in the room off the upper porch and when the lights went out we cracked the door open to cool fresh air and sounds of the Florida forest. Taking coffee on the deck, riding bikes through the surrounding streets and dining in town and at the beach fulfilled every expectation.

Couldn't have had better hosts or a more perfect place to stay. Unbelievably beautiful and amazing home.

This is an amazing cottage in an idyllic setting, beautifully finished and the perfect place for a getaway. The hosts are wonderful and we can't wait to stay there again.

5 stars all around for the place and host great little cottage will stay again for sure hope next time to have time at the pool.

Met Manuel when we arrived. He was most gracious showing us the accommodations and finally saying "Ask if you need anything." It was perfect!

Great value, extremely clean place and Manuel was very friendly, communicated clearly and waited patiently for us to arrive.

We had a great stay! The house was very clean and can accommodate 5 people. Manuel was such a good host. The pool looked really good also. Over all a very comfortable stay

Great hosts!! Communication and guest satisfaction are their focus. The apartment provides a nice place to sleep. It is easy to locate. Check-in and check out are easy. Entrance is through the bathroom, which is a bit unusual; but is convenient if you use the pool. Closets are large.

They were great! We ended up getting there several hours late, and they were super accommodating. They had snacks and drinks there. And since we got in so late, we were in no mood to hunt down food, so that was a great touch! I would definitely recommend their place!

This is one of the most private and fair priced places I have stayed in. I highly recommend this for anyone

Very clean and neat, excellent hosts!

Is a good place, a little expensive for 2 people

Repeat stay. No complaints. Very comfortable. Jan was very welcoming and sweet! We enjoyed our stay.

The room was very comfortable and very clean. The house was quiet and I would definitely stay again.

Loved this place. Janice takes excellent care of her property. We felt really comfortable. She is a super host. Very peaceful surroundings.

Very comfortable and spacious. No complaints

Great place to stay! Clean, very big room, Janice is a very very nice person and we felt like home.

Our stay here was very accommodating and pleasurable. The room was quite large and very clean. Jan was very welcoming and easy to talk to. I felt very comfortable here and would book again without hesitation. You won't be disappointed. Give her a try! I highly recommend it here.

I had a really pleasant stay at Jan's place, and highly recommend it for anyone considering staying the area :). Thank-you Jan!

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

House very nice it's very quiet awesome shower, hard bed, nice dog, very nice couple very flexible

Georgia is a wonderful hostess, we even decided to book an extra night. I would highly recommend staying at her place if you are on the area.

Georgina and her husband are very friendly and make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in the door! Their home is beautiful and has an awesome shower. I highly recommend they are your next host!

fantastic experience

Divina was a great Host!! Beautiful house, very clean room, and she was very helpful and nice ... We definitely recommend her to anybody that wants to visit to Central Florida!!! A great place to stay!

Divina was a wonderful host with a beautiful place. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Thanks again.

Comfortable and isolated

The home is lovely, secluded location, Divina very nice and accommodating, and even had a surprise breakfast for us!

The host canceled this reservation 6 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

It was so nice and cozy staying here. The rooms were clean and comfy. I felt right at home and Divina and Tim were the best hosts and were very accommodating. I felt like one of the family. The house is in a quiet neighborhood with lots of nature around. Breakfast was amazing! I would definitely stay here again. :)

We had a lovely stay! Divina definitely has a gift for hospitality. She was very accommodating and has thought of everything. She is conveniently located and offered many great suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area!

Divina was more the hospitable!
